[DeTomaso] 1971 yellow paint code

[Jim Gray]

So, who sells the "Factory Parts Book"?  I've got the orange-cover parts
book, and agree it's not too helpful.

No PPG codes are available.  Here's what you have to choose from:

Acme:  3-91033
Ditzler:  81945
Du Pont:  38807L
Martin-Senour:  99-21485
Rinshed Mason:  PT004
Rogers:  8-91033
Sherwin-Williams:  J5-4678

All this information comes from the first few pages of both the De Tomaso
factory parts book for the US market (highly recommended) and the
orange-covered
Ford parts book (an almost complete waste of paper IMHO).

The factory parts book has a GT5-S on the cover.  It's a very worthwhile
addition to your library.

Cheers!
